Title:
Mini Maestro 12: Official Pololu method for Arduino Uno to select between multiple stored sequences
⸻
Hello Pololu Engineers,
I am working on a robot using a Mini Maestro 12 and an Arduino Uno.
The Arduino reads a FlySky receiver CH6 using a 3-position switch. The receiver is working correctly and the Arduino reads approximately:
Position 1 = 990 µs
Position 2 = 1487 µs
Position 3 = 1979 µs
The Arduino TX (Pin 1) is connected to the Maestro RX, with a common ground. The Maestro is configured for UART with a fixed baud rate of 9600.
In Maestro Control Center I have Sequence 1, Sequence 2 and Sequence 3 stored in the same project, and each sequence plays correctly from the Sequence tab.
When I view the compiled code, it appears to contain only the currently selected sequence.
My goal is for the Arduino Uno to select and start Sequence 1, Sequence 2 or Sequence 3 depending on the CH6 switch position.
Before making any changes to my Maestro project, I would like to follow the official Pololu-recommended method.
Could you please advise the correct approach?
Should I:
- Use “Copy All Sequences to Script”?
- Create a master script that calls each sequence?
- Trigger script subroutines from the Arduino?
- Or is there another method you recommend?
I would prefer to follow the method that Pololu recommends rather than creating my own solution.
I have attached screenshots of my Sequence tab and the compiled code in case they are helpful.
If it would help further, I am happy to provide my Maestro settings file or any additional screenshots.
Thank you very much for your time.
Kind regards,
Charlie
